Skin redness and itching
Sometimes the skin starts itching for a while and then it starts becoming red and continues itching for 20-25 minutes and stops after applying mustard oil (home remedy). I have been facing this problem since 2 years. I have consulted a skin doctor locally and he has prescribed some medicines but what is root cause this problem or allergy. Please suggest if any test is required to cure this itching and redness from its root. Thank you.
